3 INTEGRATING THE WINDOW TO THE WATER RESISTIVE BARRIER

Note: The flashing tape must be applied approximately 1/2" onto the frame cladding at the jambs and head. Pre-folding the tape at 1/2" before removing the paper backing will make it easier to apply the tape correctly. If the siding is less than 1/2" thick, adjust the dimension of the fold so the exterior sealant line will cover the exterior edge of the tape.

Flashing Tape

Rectangular Units Only:

 

A. Apply side flashing tape. Cut two pieces of flashing

 

tape 4" longer than the frame height of the window.

 

Apply one piece to each side 1/2" onto the frame

 

cladding, over the nailing fin and onto the water

 

resistive barrier. The tape should extend 2" above the

 

top of the window and 2" below the bottom of the

3B

window. Press the tape down firmly while folding

 

down the excess tape at the top and bottom of the

 

window.

3B

 

B. Apply top flashing tape. Cut a piece of flashing

 

tape long enough to go across the top of the window

 

and extend at least 1" past the side flashing tape

 

on both sides. Apply the tape 1/2" onto the frame

 

cladding, over the top nailing fin as shown. Fold

 

the overlapping tape down, and press all tape down

 

firmly.

 

Note: DO NOT tape or seal the bottom nailing fin.

3C

C. Fold down top flap of water resistive barrier (3C).

3D

 

D. Apply flashing tape to diagonal cuts. Cut pieces of

3D

flashing tape at least 1" longer than the diagonal cuts in

 

the water resistive barrier. Apply the tape covering the

 

entire diagonal cut in the water resistive barrier at both

 

upper corners of the window.

 

Note: Be sure to overlap the top corners (3D).
